SIRIUS satellite radio provides 100 chan-
nels of digital-quality radio, among others
music, sports, news, and entertainment,
free of commercials. SIRIUS satellite radio
uses a fleet of high-power satellites to
broadcast 24 hours per day, coast to
coast, in contiguous U.S.
This diverse, satellite-delivered program-
ming is available for a monthly subscrip-
tion fee.
For more information and service
availability, call the SIRIUS Service Center
(page 206), or contact
www.siriusradio.comProgram categories
The channels are categorized. Categories
allow you to tune to stations broadcasting
a certain type of program (category mode)
(
page 204).
iAdditional satellite radio equipment
and a subscription to a satellite radio
service provider are required for the
satellite radio operation described
here.
Contact an authorized Mercedes-Benz
Center for details and availability for
your vehicle.
Note that categories and channels
shown in illustrations are dependent on
programming content delivered by the
service provider. Programming content
is subject to change. Therefore,
channels and categories shown in
illustrations and descriptions
contained in this manual may differ
from the channels and categories
delivered by the service provider.
iSatellite radio service may be unavail-
able or interrupted from time to time
for a variety of reasons, such as envi-
ronmental or topographic conditions
and other things beyond the service
provider’s or our control. Service might
also not be available in certain places
(e.g., in tunnels, parking garages, or
within or next to buildings) or near
other technologies.

Initially, after switching on ignition, mal-
functions are detected and indicated (the
indicator lamps in the SOS button, the
Roadside Assistance button•, and the
Information button¡ stay on longer
than ten seconds or do not come on).
The message
Tele Aid malfunction
Drive to workshop
appears in the multi-
function display.Emergency calls
An emergency call is initiated automatical-
ly following an accident in which the emer-
gency tensioning devices (ETDs) or
air bags deploy.
An emergency call can also be initiated
manually by opening the cover next to the
interior rear view mirror labeled SOS, then
briefly pressing the button located under
the cover. See (
page 259) for instruc-
tions on initiating an emergency call man-
ually.
Once the emergency call is in progress, the
indicator lamp in the SOS button will begin
to flash. The message
Connecting call

appears in the multifunction display and
the audio system is muted. When the con-
nection is established, the message
Call connected
appears in the multifunc-
tion display. All information relevant to the
emergency, such as the location of the ve-
hicle (determined by the GPS satellite loca-
tion system), vehicle model, identification
number and color are generated.
!The Tele Aid system utilizes the cellular
network for communication and the
GPS (Global Positioning System) satel-
lites for vehicle location. If either of
these signals are unavailable, the
Tele Aid system may not function and if
this occurs, assistance must be sum-
moned by other means.

pected. Have the system checked at the
nearest Mercedes-Benz Center as soon as
possible.
